FAMIL: Room-Res & Singapore Tourism Board shows agents the Lion City’s roar
Edited by Travel Weekly


Room-Res recently finished its famil trip through Singapore with Singapore Tourism Board where agents lapped up all that makes the Lion City iconic.

From the rides at Universal Studios Singapore, where agents enjoyed VIP access, to the perspectives offered by the world’s first vintage Vespa sidecar tour, the Singapore Sidecars, every moment was designed to impress.

Agents were not only participants but were immersed in the rich tapestry that is Singapore, enjoying special surprises that included a traditional kaya toast tasting, a session at HyperDrive, and breakfast in the wild at Singapore Zoo.

The journey through Sentosa Scensoryscape and the Gardens by the Bay, featuring the Cloud Forest & OCBC Skyway, highlighted Singapore’s commitment to combining nature with innovation. But it wasn’t just about the sights but also about the tastes.

Dining experiences ranged from casual breakfasts at the hotel to dinners on the Royal Albatross and lunches showcasing Michelin-starred cuisine at Candlenut, ensuring every meal was an event.

Accommodation was no less spectacular, with Far East Hospitality providing a comfortable and luxurious stay at the Oasia Resort Sentosa and agents experiencing the new Mondrian Singapore Duxton.

Agents also enjoyed Cryotherapy facials at Oasia Spa and the tailor-made menu at LAVO Italian Restaurant & Rooftop Bar, with views over Marina Bay, and the exclusive sunset dining experience aboard the Albatross Tall Ship.

In collaboration with the Singapore Tourism Board, this trip showcased the city-state in a light that many have yet to see, inviting travel agents and their clients to explore deeper, taste more boldly, and adventure freely.

Singapore awaits with open arms, ready to share its stories, flavours, and adventures. This fam trip was just a taste of the endless possibilities waiting in the Lion City. To our travel agent partners and future collaborators, we look forward to bringing you into Singapore’s incredible story, where every visit is an opportunity for discovery, luxury, and unforgettable experiences.
